The emc testing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.25 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to the globalization of electronics manufacturing, the widespread adoption of IoT devices, the rising complexity of medical devices, the rapid expansion of electric vehicles, the increased deployment of renewable energy technologies, and the surge in telecommuting technologies. Significant trends expected in the forecast period encompass technological advancements in electronics, the integration of AI and machine learning, progress in aerospace technologies, and the adoption of green EMC testing practices.

The EMC testing market is expected to experience growth due to the increasing demand for electric vehicles. Electric vehicles, equipped with electric motors powered by batteries and an external charging source, undergo EMC testing to evaluate radio frequency (RF) emissions and assess their susceptibility to RF impulses. In September 2022, the International Energy Agency reported a 4% increase in electric car sales in 2021, reaching 6.6 million units and bringing the total number of electric vehicles on the road to 16.5 million. Consequently, the surging demand for electric vehicles is a key driver of growth in the EMC testing market.

The EMC testing market is anticipated to be fueled by the growing demand for consumer electronics. Consumer electronics, designed for personal and non-commercial use, undergo EMC testing to ensure their electromagnetic compatibility and functionality in the presence of electromagnetic radiation. For example, LG, a South Korea-based consumer electronics company, achieved its highest annual revenue ever in 2022, surpassing $60 billion, with a 12.9% increase from 2021. The Home Appliance & Air Solution Company contributed significantly, reaching $22.5 billion in revenue, marking a 10.3% growth from the previous year. This upward trend in consumer electronics demand is a driving force behind the growth of the EMC testing market.


Technological advancement stands out as a prominent trend in the EMC testing market, with major companies dedicated to introducing innovative solutions and devices to maintain their market position. An example is Gauss Instruments, a Germany-based EMC test equipment manufacturer, which unveiled the TDEMI S Series in June 2022. This real-time spectrum and signal analyzer for EMC testing can be upgraded to operate in the terahertz frequency range using external mixers. With a compact size and 12-volt output, it is suitable for field or onboard testing. The TDEMI S Series employs Hyper Overlapping technology for signal recording and analysis, achieving maximum measurement accuracy through high-resolution ADCs that correct nonlinear effects using a patented method.

Major companies in the EMC testing market are strategically investing to enhance their Electrical & Electronics (EE) regulatory compliance testing services, aiming to maximize profits and extend capabilities. These investments are geared towards improving testing service quality and reliability, as well as developing new technologies and testing methods. In July 2021, SGS SA, a France-based provider of inspection, verification, testing, and certification services, launched in-situ EMC and electromagnetic interference (EMI) testing services through an investment in advanced mobile testing equipment. This initiative enables SGS to support manufacturers dealing with larger and more installed equipment, eliminating the challenges of transporting such equipment to EMC test chambers. The in-situ EMC testing service offers a practical solution when logistics make transportation to an accredited testing laboratory impractical.

In May 2021, Ametek Inc., a US-based electronic device manufacturing company, acquired NSI-MI Technologies for $230 million. This strategic acquisition is expected to aid Ametek Inc. in new product development and global expansion, providing comprehensive test and measurement systems for specialized applications in aerospace, defense, automotive, wireless communications, and research sectors. NSI-MI Technologies is a US-based provider of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and radio frequency (RF) testing.
